Hi, im looking to get into data science with a degree apprenticeship in year 2027-28. Im targeting firms like Morgan Stanley and jpm, Cambridge stem cell research center and other large companies. If I do get in, in case I feel like at the end of the 4 years I dont really want to do data science anymore, how easy would it be to switch to another field in computer science or engineering, for example embedded systems given i have good projects. I would either get a data science or a digital technology solutions degree btw, not cs. Will potential employers look at my application as: -less competitive than a standard new grad cs or ce- because I would not do any electives regarding embedded or low level stuff and probably no internships -same or perhaps more competitive since I would have had 4 years of experience albeit with a mostly unrelated field. How easy is it to pivot after degree apprenticeships, and will I still have same amount of access to top jobs like quant, ml engineer and perhaps doing a PhD and research?
